ðĐ ð Why did she say it's a dog poo? It's a beauty from Argentina!
ðļ This remarkable caudiciform Morning Glory - Ipomoea platensis - is native to arid regions of Argentina.
ðļ This is a showy flowering vine growing from a large caudex! The caudex can be of some weird shapes and forms. Some old lady once said "it's a dog poo plant!"
ðļ Similar to Desert roses (Adeniums), it grows caudex for water storage to survive extended drought periods.
ðļ Caudex grows over 2 ft! Vines reach over 6 ft, easily trimmed to shape, covered with beautiful bell-shaped pink flowers.
ðļ Can be kept as a bonsai in a pot, easy to control as a container specimen with trellis or pruning.
ðļ Although it doesn't mind dry conditions, the plant benefits from regular watering and good drainage, then it grows fast.
ðļ This is one of our favorite plants, easy to grow, makes a great conversation piece. It is a perfect for bonsai ðŠī
